Parts for your 2025 Mitsubishi Eclipse cross-Oil pump

2025 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross oil pump — purpose and servicing

Based on Mitsubishi Motors service literature for the GK/GL series (Lubrication section) and the Mitsubishi ASA electronic parts catalogue, the 2025 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is fitted with an engine oil pump. This applies to both the 1.5‑litre turbo‑petrol variant and the Eclipse Cross PHEV’s 2.4‑litre engine, where a positive‑displacement (gear/trochoid‑type) pump is specified as part of the factory lubrication system.

The oil pump on a 2025 Eclipse Cross is the quiet achiever, pushing pressurised oil through the engine to protect crankshaft bearings, camshafts, timing components and, on the 1.5T, the turbocharger. It feeds the variable valve timing gear and hydraulic lash adjusters, keeps friction down, carries heat away from hot spots, and helps the engine live a long, low‑drama life. Because it’s a positive‑displacement design, it builds pressure from idle and maintains flow as revs rise, with the relief system managing excess pressure on cold starts. Without it, metal‑on‑metal contact would quickly end the party.

There’s no scheduled replacement for the oil pump
